Yep! The same image flashed back in my mind.

I recognise that! KFC in Tower Hill, London. One of the filthiest restaurants I’ve been in but holy fuck it’s still the best KFC I’ve had like 5 years later. Also - you Have to pay for the fucking toilet as well.

Favorite Poe short story ever! I made a D&D arc loosely based off it once! (And at the end when one of the players was like "...that NPC was amontillado'd!" I whipped out a bottle I had picked up from the liquor store for a little extra flourish amd was like "Yup, and lets have some!"

We all had a glass for the first time, and I gotta say, 10/10 would not follow a dude into a creepy underground staircase for a cask of it. Not worth it.)

Anyhow. Top tier meme. Saved!
